Short and Sweet Weekend Recap
Good Monday morrow to you all. I hopeth thee hath much tomfoolery to reminisce upon from thine weekend. (Damn that would be exhausting to talk like that all of the time.) We've had biblical rain all week and weekend so road tripping would've been out of the question. No one wants to drive on slick roads for hours so we were stuck at home. I am pretty sure unless it's for pizza, we're done eating out for a while. I got so ticked trying to order from a new place and all of the hoops they wanted you to jump through that I said screw it and the Mr was ticked too and said they were shysters. ($42 for what equates to Chinese takeout "bowl". Nope.) Then he mentioned a BBQ place and I was resistant because BBQ always makes me sick, without question. I relented because we'd spent 20 minutes trying to find a place by that time and were both getting irritated. Not like we spent less than we would have if we'd gone to th...
I guess we just don't realize how much we use our thumbs until an injury prevents us from doing so! I hope you heal fast!
ReplyDeleteI have a recurring problem in the tendon connecting my thumb & wrist so I feel your pain, and your frustration with it. I also want to take the opportunity to tell you to ICE THAT THUMB! If it doesn't heal up soonish you might check with you actual doctor (instead of urgent care) or a physical therapist.
ReplyDeleteHang in there, the accomplishment will be sweet when you're healed and back in action!

Don't make me get all Vanilla Ice on you! Ice Ice Baby!
ReplyDeleteHope you are icing that finger, wouldn't want to have to travel half way across the country to force you to ice-lol! As I was reading you description of the exercises I went through the motion and I never realized just how many muscles are involved in moving your thumb! Hope the exercises help and you are back to strength training soon.
ReplyDeleteIce your thumb!
ReplyDeleteI hear you, I'm battling my wrist again and it is sooooo annoying. Good for you for taking it on yourself to find some exercises to help. Maybe I will try that. I have been wearing my brace to bed but maybe need to wear it more...
Ice, Ice baby...come on!!! Get to icin' woman!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you'll be getting some physical therapy for your thumb. I worked for a therapist for a while, so I'm familiar with all the exercises you have to do. Isn't it a great feeling to say you miss strength training?! I said this morning that when I got home I was going to do a butt-blasting video that kicks my tookus every time...and it's less than 10 minutes long! There is real truth to strength helping to burn more calories. I hope this therapy is a great success so you can get back to your ST routine by the end of the month or so!
